C Correct answer
Explanation

'Avid' means showing keen interest, enthusiasm, or eagerness. An 'avid collector' is someone who collects with great passion, enthusiasm, and dedication - they're deeply committed to their hobby. 'Assertive' means confident and self-assured, 'attentive' means observant and paying attention, and 'averse' means opposed or disinclined - none of which capture the enthusiasm and dedication implied by 'avid'.
